Student life The fun part of what happens at school is what we have tried to capture in the following pages. All the dances, all the games, ' most everything we do outside of class. It’s not easy capturing the varied activities and personalities of over 400 students. But victories and heartbreaks, breakthroughs and setbacks, all can be found, squeezed into these pages. Parents and elders are constantly telling us, “Enjoy. These are the best years of your life.” This is student life, students working and growing together, having a good time doing it. Everything was squeezed together to make it fit. Our activities may not have been as extravagent, such as no floats for Spirit Week, but we made it work, caring and sharing with everyone. 6 — Student Life

Beyond The Classroom Without seven hours of school and extra curricular activities to worry about, many students took advan- tage of their summer vacations to learn and improve in areas they were interested in. Foreign and American students learned more about the world during the World Affairs Seminar at the University of Wisconsin, Whitewater. Cheryl Huseman and Mercedes Sheehy, sponsored by the Lions Club, attended to learn about world problems and conflicts. Nuclear arms and conflicts in Afghanistan were two topics of discussion. Sue Sikma and Lydia Maldonado attended the Student Leadership In- stitute at Indiana University. ‘‘Lydia and I had a lot of fun as we learned- more about Student Council and met many people. Also, while we were at S.H.I. we each set goals for ourselves and our offices that we will fulfill!” Journalism students again attend- ed Ball State Workshops for newspaper, yearbook and photography. Karen Thorn and Cheryl Huseman attended for year- book; Sue Sikma, Robin Richardson and Dan Wells for newspaper, Andy Richart and Dan Wells for photography. Three pompon girls attended a workshop at Indiana University. Lor- raine Pearson, Debbie Corbett and Dana Martin learned seven new routines to use at the basketball games. ►On the first day of school, Mr. Young gave each of his classes a writing assignment. Here, his third hour class listens as the assignment is explained. To improve shooting skills for the upcoming season, Tim Kubiak, Todd Jenkins, Brian Sharp, Joe Storms, Ralph Brown, and Larry Suarez at- tended Dick Baumgarter’s shooting camp in Richmond. Pat Sawaska, Bob Beck and Brian Henson worked at the Indiana Basketball Camp. Other students spent the summer working to make money for college. One of the things that made com- ing back to school so hard was hav- ing to miss the soaps, faithfully followed all summer. It was almost like living in another world during the summer in a galaxy beyond the classroom. But then August slips away and . . . The alarm goes off — rinnggg! A typical student turn s over and looks at the clock. 6:00 a.m.! For some it was the first time they had seen the world before sun-up since June. One final groan and he rolls out of bed dreading the upcoming day — the first day of school. The beginning of another long year. Freshmen had a whole new routine to get used to. All of a sudden these newcomers found themselves in different halls with different classes and different teachers. For seniors it was the beginning of the end. It was the last time to get involv- ed in everything done in the last three years. The day started off right with the bells not working and students being tardy. There was the last minute rush of registration and paying book rental fees for those who could not bear to come in until the last minute. The whole day was a day of read- justment and settling in. Teachers explained courses and rules and then as you rushed out the door they smil- ed sweetly and said, “See you tomor- row. Most wished they were out beyond the classroom again. 8 — Summer Activities First Day of School
